I can't get to the classifieds yet so here we go. Im a new member, aircraft mechanic by trade. I have my father in laws 1984 ATC 200ES that im in the middle of restoring for my wife, that she rode since she was a kid. I need both rear fenders and trunk lid, and all of the protection parts of the back rack above the trunk, also a head light housing. Thanks in advance for any help

I don't have any of those parts, but welcome.

[RotorHead]

Thanks. All of yall must already know those parts are not avalable on line any where. Hopefully some one on this site knows some one some where tha has them. I also restored a 1994 TRX 300FW which may be sacrilidge here I don't know. Also a 1974 Toyota FJ 40 which is un related. Side note I refurb helicopters fo a living so its kinda in my blood.

eBay and keep looking everyday! I found a new set of rear fenders for my 200es but took a year of looking everyday on eBay!

[350for350]

Helicopters? Now that's probably something not too many of us here have tackled. As for the rest, I'm sure most of us are also into quads/cars/trucks/SUV's.

Aircraft are fun like a big model.

It s going well, found some very good shape fenders on E Bay.

Welcome glad to see an 84 ES being restored, they really are very capable, awesome machines and don't seem to get a whole lot of attention here but I love them, post lots of pics of build.

Found all thre parts I need to finish. When im done i'm going to run down what I bought and where I found them. I spent hours searching the net (while drinkin beer) and will share that knowledge with the forum, mabe that will save some one some time and effort. Ill probably finish this week . so stay tooned.

Your FJ40 is nice. May get a pointers for mine a 65. I have a set of Hondaline 200 mud flaps201680 if interested

[Big G]

Very nice restore on the ES. Thanks for the eye candy!

[RotorHead]

Get you a Spector off road catalog or go on line. Also crusierarts.net has a bone yard for parts no longer available. All the parts u need.

For all the purest out there, this was not a restoration to factory production standard. It was done for maximum usability and longevity. As we say at work, if you want to do restorations go work for the Smithsonian Institute. I use It every week for yard work or joyriding, this is not a museum, ride them like you stole them I say. All crome plated parts ie , handle bars, shift selector, foot break, rear bar, headlight bezzle was rusty. I glass blasted, acid etched, primed and painted satin nickel with a slight metal flake. I felt rechrome was expensive and counterproductive for the long run. Racks were Linex sprayed, thanks Agri Sport my boy Steve. Fuel tank painted by a good fried of mine at Duhon's Autobody... thanks Craig. Seat recoverd at Jeff"s Upholstery. Frame brushed, scotch brited, rust converted, primed & painted satin black. Most parts are from Bike Bandit, Rocky Mountain & Beatrice Cycle. Reproduction decal kit from Akuma Salas & Motodecals off of ebay. As yall may notice some decals are not stock, Honda should have put 200ES decals on it anyway. Fenders, trunk & headlight off of Ebay & I bought a extra set in case I crack another one and plastic restored with PC Racing Plastic Renew. I also added a hour meter / tach with mounting bracket by Trail Tech, (Bike Bandit). I had a plastic milk crate on the front rack before,, found a metal on on ebay for $15 dollars, cut it down and painted. Engine oil & final drive serviced with AMS Oil synthetic. My wife says it looks better than when they bought it new....that was 30 years ago... she was 14, like she remembers.... well that was a long time ago and she loves me!!! I would like to thank football... sanding is a boring thing, & Bud Lite for all the support. Hope yall enjoyed this thread, time to crack a beer and go ride!!! I will post more detailed pictures in a few days.

[Corey Antrevor]

[Jmoozy27]

That thing is clean, how much for the trailer?

[RotorHead]

They at countryatv.com tis one was $639.00 plus the $99 hydrulic lift and $110 shipping. Its the 6ft one Model 6500.

[Jmoozy27]

What Bristow heliport do you work out of? If you don't mind me asking...

[RotorHead]

How much? post pics, are they in good condition?

[TobyG]

The Wheeler looks Great! I'm like you. While I would love to be able to spend the money and time and labor to bring a 30 year-old bike back to "brand new", it isn't feasible for me, because I am going to enjoy it, work it, play it, and then pass it down to my grandsons.

[Jmoozy27]

It doesn't matter what it looks like as long as it is mechanically sound and serves it's purpose. The only time a rider looks at the trike is when the rider isn't riding. Easy fix...
